Do any of you ladies have a 2ct/8mm Round Asha next to a Moissanite?

I want to see the visual difference....We made up our mind on a Moissaniteco setting but now im having second thoughts about Moissanite, im worried about the colour!!!!

Please HELP!!! =)

I just took a whole bunch. I was going to start a thread
perhaps this weekend, but I will post a photo right now for you.
Let me get to my pictures...

(ETA: I did post a bunch of pictures last
weekend including some of an 8mm Asha RB, you
can search for my threads on the Asha forum
if it's the RB you are interested in,
and I can take a few pics of the Moissy vs RB
if you want me to, LMK)

I took many many pictures, because that's just me. smile

The 2 stones are my Asha 2 ct 8mm OEC
and
an Unenhanced Moissy 2 ct 8mm OEC
that I got yesterday via Fed Ex.

I am trying to get fair pictures of them in all lighting
so I am going to take a few more pictures this weekend
before posting a bunch...

There is a definite difference in the stones.
Both are actually very beautiful, I think,
but also very different.
The lighting plays a huge role in how I see them.
Here you go !

(please excuse my dirty Asha blush I wore her yesterday
and took these photos outside in the late afternoon)

Oh, that rose gold is scrumptious !!!! love


You can see, my Moissy is very warm,
and for some reason, I don't really mind that.
I was worried more about green-cast, TBH.
